Arsene Wenger swapped Arsenal's red training gear for a walk down the red carpet on Tuesday evening when he attended the British Film Institute's inaugural fundraising gala dinner.

Fresh from being named the Premier League's manager of the month for the first time since February 2012, the Frenchman took time out of his busy schedule to join his wife Annie at the star-studded event in central London.

Looking relaxed in a dapper dark suit, the former Monaco boss joined a host of well-known faces, including actress Sienna Miller and popstar Eliza Doolittle, at the event to celebrate British film.

Ray Winstone, actor and die-hard fan of Arsenal's London rivals West Ham, was also in attendance, along with TV presenter Jonathan Ross and Damian Lewis, star of American drama Homeland.

Guests were invited to bid on a number of exciting auction prizes
including the Formula 1 replica car from current hit film Rush, John
Travolta’s signed suit from the movie Face/Off and original signed stills
from Sam Taylor Wood’s I Love You More and Isaac Julien’s Mazu, Turning.

Wenger had plenty of reasons to smile
for the assembled cameras with his team top of the league and closing
in on qualification for the knockout stages of the Champions League
after wins over Marseille and Napoli.

Next up for the league's table-toppers is a home game with Chris Hughton's Norwich City, who currently occupy a relegation spot.
